Becoming a member of Elysium Community

Elysium Community affiliate membership is €548.95 EUR after which €79.95 EUR a month

There’s a cheaper affiliate possibility for €179.90 EUR however I’ve largely ignored that because it’s not a part of the MLM alternative.

Conclusion

The 2 main considerations relating to Elysium Community are securities fraud and pyramid recruitment.

Elysium Capital states it generates ROI income through

authorised prime brokers and liquidity suppliers registered with the Swedish Monetary Supervisory Authority (FSA) in full transparency and with segregated accounts in extremely respected European banks: Swedbank, Nordea Financial institution, SEB and Barclays.

That’s nice for the brokers, however Elysium Community is the one providing the passive funding alternative.

Elysium Capital subsequently must be registered with securities regulators, and so far as I can inform they aren’t. Not in Sweden, or wherever else on this planet.

Why would an MLM firm decide to function illegally? Effectively normally it’s as a result of they aren’t doing what they are saying they’re.

With out legally required audited third-party accounting filings, it’s inconceivable to substantiate Elysium Community is certainly paying returns with exterior income.

It is a regulatory failing on Elysium Community’s half, and charts just like the one under are usually not a substitute:

With respect to pyramid recruitment, the one retail facet of the enterprise seems to be a mysterious €500 EUR minimal passive funding alternative.

Associates are given entry to backoffice software program, which is what the MLM alternative primarily focuses on.

Elysium Capital fails to enter element relating to standalone funding, emphasizing its irrelevancy throughout the MLM alternative.

What you’re left with is paying affiliate membership charges and getting paid to recruit others who do the identical.

Elysium Community pseudo-compliance break up membership charges into “admin charges” and “software program licenses”, however on the finish of the day that is the way you join as an affiliate.

Paying commissions on affiliate membership charges constitutes recruitment commissions, and any MLM firm during which that is the first supply of commissions paid out is working as a pyramid scheme.

Additionally if Elysium Community’s buying and selling software program is all that it’s cracked as much as be, why is it solely accessible to associates?

And why is there actually zero detailed info supplied about Elysium Community’s buying and selling bots? That is one other regulatory compliance fail.

The very last thing I need to contact on is Elysium Community’s company construction.

There’s Elysium Community, Elysium Capital and Elysium Social. Why?

There’s actually nothing about Elysium Community that couldn’t be condensed into one easy web site.

Elysium Capital’s web site is ineffective. You possibly can’t truly do something on it besides learn obscure funding guarantees and the crew’s company bios.

No concept if Elysium Social has its personal web site. I did be aware there’s an Elysium Social working out of Maryland within the US, so there’s a possible trademark dispute within the works there.

When you’re nonetheless hell-bent on becoming a member of Elysium Community I suppose you could possibly ask your potential upline what their very own ROI earnings have been and the way a lot they’re making via the ROI match.

Stage 1 pays out an 16% match so if there’s nothing there you possibly can put two and two collectively.

At a minimal Elysium Community wants to deal with securities regulatory considerations.

Fleshing out an precise retail funding alternative can come subsequent, however there’s no level whereas what you’re providing is illegitimate anyway.

 

Replace 14th August 2020 – As on the time of this replace Elysium Capital has failed to deal with securities fraud considerations.

The corporate has nevertheless named the dealer it is going to be committing securities fraud via.

 

Replace eighth September 2020 – I used to be despatched in a replica of Elysium Community’s present compensation pan.

Based mostly on that I’ve up to date the compensation part of this evaluate with a number of proportion adjustments, rank qualification standards and the 5-Star pool bonus.

I’m additionally noting this “disclaimer” from the compensation plan:

Elsyium Capital Restricted doesn’t settle for shoppers from the U.S.

This in and of itself is a purple flag but in addition ties into Elysium Capital’s securities fraud and pyramid recruitment purple flags.

 

Replace twenty second July 2021 – BehindMLM revisited Elysium Community for an up to date evaluate in July 2021.
